'Orthofen' - ointment that will save you from pain

Before describing "Orthofen" - ointment with a pronounced analgesic effect, I want to note that I have experienced its properties on my own. Not because I so wanted, but because of the circumstances. These were problems with the spine and knee joint. Pathology was accompanied by severe pain. Of course, we bought a lot of medicines. Accordingly, and about "Orthophene" (ointment) reviews left by me, have a solid foundation.

Not without the fact that you can meet and negative feedback about this drug, particularly on the Internet. Nevertheless, most consumers claim that "Orthofen Ointment" is well tolerated, and by its action often surpasses many others. I agree with this, because I have repeatedly saved myself and saved myself from pain, thanks to this remedy.

Perhaps many readers are more aware of the other name of the drug "Orthofen" - "Diclofenac", and the author of the article during the illness, was first injected with "Epifenac." Then for the first time I managed to sleep and sleep without pain. But "Orthofen", "Diclofenac" and "Epifenac" are all synonyms. It should be noted that even now, with joint pains or back pain, I personally and all members of our family use only "Orthofen Ointment", as well as tablets of this drug and its analogues.

What is the reason for such magical qualities of this medicine? The fact that the drug in question has inherent anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, and as an anesthetic, it is prescribed even with osteomyelitis of the spine. It was this pathology, accompanied by incredible pains, I had. I had to postpone and surgery for purulent arthritis of the knee joint, after which "Orthofen Ointment" was also very useful.

Perfectly this preparation (and in particular in the form of ointment) has proved itself in the fight against osteochondrosis, osteoarthritis, neuralgia, bursitis. It is intended "Orthofen Ointment" for topical application. She perfectly copes with almost any pathology, accompanied by inflammation. In addition to the above-mentioned diseases, in the treatment of which the drug in question is well established, you should add other: rheumatoid arthritis, spondylitis, tendovaginitis, lumbago. The list of pathologies can be continued, but we will limit ourselves to the observation that they are all united by an inflammatory character. It seems that the miracle-ointment is effective for any inflammation and pain in the musculoskeletal system.

In particular, we are talking about traumatic bruises, stretches of tendons, ligaments and muscles, as well as pains that are caused by excessive physical exertion. When a person says that he "tore his back," this is exactly the case when the agent in question will help him.

"Orthofen Ointment" is used as follows. It should be squeezed out of the tube a small amount (about 1.2 cm) and apply a thin layer on the area of the body, which causes anxiety. Apply ointment with the fingers. Absorption in the skin and subcutaneous tissue occurs within 5 minutes, and the duration of action is up to five hours. The maximum daily dose is considered to be eight grams. Individual treatment from one day to two weeks.

What can I say about contraindications to the use of ointment? First of all, this is hypersensitivity to such drugs. Also, should not be used with exacerbations of stomach ulcers, duodenal ulcers, allergies, rhinitis, hives. It is cautiously prescribed to children under the age of six.

Among the side effects were marked redness, burning. Do not apply "Orthofen Ointment" on the mucous membrane and damaged areas of the skin (scratches, abrasions, wounds). Contraindicated ointment for use during pregnancy and lactation.

Be sure to consult with the appropriate specialist and be sane!
